Listen in to hear a story of strength and persistence, Michael didn’t think he’d live past 30. The second oldest of four kids, he grew up in Southern California. His story includes alcohol, drugs, getting admitted to UCLA, graduating and moving on to get a law degree, opening his own successful law firm, then burning it all down. These days he’s built a whole lot of his life back, he’s pivoted from surviving to thriving, living in Hollywood with his girlfriend of 4 years, he’s close to his daughter and his family again, and he’s excited to see what will happen next.
